Congrats!
I had around 79k when I traded mine in... other than needing a clutch, ran like a top. :mrgreen:

Quote me now while I'm feeling good about it.  I've decided a WRX will be the vehicle that replaces the Jeep.  I can't see paying Evo prices or justifying purchasing a halfassed/beat to death example for the same asinine amount of money.  For an affordable, point to point, all-weather capable performance car, a wagon fits the bill.  A swapped wagon, even better.

Nice dude. That makes me feel good. What problems have you had in its lifetime?

Yeah she runs well. Burns about 1 quart every 3k. Just had the OE rotors replaced along with its 3rd set of brake pads and new ss lines. Still stock block, turbo, ic, clutch, injectors, fuel pump etc... Ran an Accessport from 15k to about 85K after which I got an open source tune at DSG which I am very happy with. Shes making 267whp/292tq. Hopefully upgrade to a 20G and supporting goodies with a milder type tune this spring and see how long she holds together. Will most likely need new pistons a some point but a compression test just before the tune revealed no issues.

Typical strut clunk RR around 30K. Replaced under warranty. Now have LR strut clunk but its livable. Looking at a set of ISC. Other than that all has been good.
Definitely needs suspension and new bushings soon, shes pretty squeeky over bumps and compressions but thats to be expected. All and all very happy.

I beat the life outta my WRX, kept the oil changed, fuel and air filter clean, got professional dyno tune to match my mods, and as far as I know it's still running on the original turbo/block. Had 130k or so on her when I sold her.
